Update Speculation thread

--- Post updated ---

You could just regulate the specs for certain campaign missions.
Would be pretty bummer just to leave that out because of certain campaign missions.

 

I imagine once the modern ETK's get finished they will have configs competative with some sort of AWD Hellcat Bastion equivelant, and the hill climb SBR is already at that point anyway. Or they could do what Chrysler IRL does and limit AWD to the V6 engines.

I doubt they would have had time to squeeze in any Moonhawk attention with the other vehicle content in 0.24 so far (and I expect the H-Series/Pessima remasters aren't done... It is very odd to not get any van uplifts for example). I do hope the Moonhawk is next in line; it'll be great for Bruckell to finally get some thematic elements like Gavril and to a lesser extent Ibishu have. I'm also hoping to see the Bastion's engines swapped into a resto-mod Moonhawk. Speaking of engines, I really hope they start naming engines again. IIRC only the vintage Gavril engines are named, which is a bit boring at best, and at worst a bit confusing (refering to the Hopper's engine swaps).

 

Let's speculate about about the upcoming content for the 0.24!

I was wondering if we would have a second part of this major update containing the Bruckell Bastion, the ETK Driving Experience map remaster and perhaps another big feature. It feels like they rushed this release because the community was getting too impatient for it so the devs launched it with some bugs and without the new car and the map remaster. Maybe the major thing tdev said they were working on a while ago is the new map overview feature?

 

Maybe H series heavy stuff, like school bus, heavy duty equipment.
And I wonder if we see sister car to Pressina mk2

 

Not a chance in the world

 

i think we might get a wagon variant of the new car, something similar to the Dodge Magnum

 

I doubt it, it would be far too similar to the ETK 800.

 

Btw, I was thinking about something :

The new car is a 4 doors Muscle Sedan called Bruckell Bastion.
The Moonhawk is a 2 doors "Muscle" Coupé.

If the Bruckell Bastion receives a coupé variant, why couldn't it be called "Moonhawk" ?

If it does, maybe will we see a Bruckell Moonhawk remaster next update !

 

I guess when the hazard lights button is worn, means the Pessima breaks down a lot. But that should be wrong for a 90s Japanese Camry-ish vehicle

 

We know that there is a normal police config for the Bruckell Bastion so there will probably also be an unmarked police config.

 

While the devs may or may not consider a bus uplift redundant with the passenger body style, we could really use a minibus in game as an alternate choice for doing bus routes. And at that point we are 90% the way to a school bus anyway. That would open up a great demo-derby class.

I don't think the overlap is too much. A "what if the American wagon never died" combined with a supercharged +6.0 V8 should have a much different personality than the sensible and refined 85X.

 

I wonder if the new muscle car will have a Nascar config.

 

I'm just hoping that when the Bastion is added, it will have some sort of tuning house variant available. Sort of like how you can get a HPE1000 Charger from Hennessey.

 

As much as I would love that, I don't think it would happen. Not gonna stop me from making a stock car config though

 

The Moonhawk is more like a Chevy Chevelle, a mid sized coupe/sedan with sportier trim levels. I definitely feel that the Moonhawk is much more suited as a base for a mid-size malaise era car than a pony car, we have the Barstow for that

 

i agree with what leroux said but i think it's not gonna have a 2 door variant
but yeah a small moonhawk update with the bastion would make sense

 

One thing I speculate will come in the part 2 winter update is(besides the Bruckell sedan) Career mode.
There are a few motivating reasons I speculate this:
1. When you spawn up AI traffic and have them drive around you can no longer toggle through the traffic
2. When the traffic is driving around and you crash into A car, and park next to them, after a few minutes of waiting a sign that says "you have exchanged insurance info" appears.
3. Career mode is the perfect filler for 0.24 Part 2 in my opinion because it is something big. and people keep saying that this "part 2 update is gonna have something big."
​

 

Nobody noticed the addition of the steerable rear axle in the bus tho?

 

I think the big thing with the update was the new ui

I don’t buy career mode coming this update although I do think it’s coming “soon”

 

If you're talking about what atv said he said that only a small portion of it came in this update, and that it's all code and no graphics.
